well they need time to promote and for the album and the first single needs time to catch on and grow so while i dont like it the date is understandable
Sigh . . . finally a date, but so far off. I understand the need for the delay; They have to make the CDs, labels, promotions, get it out there, all that crap. Just been waaaiiittiiing . . . but I guess another FIVE MONTHS won't kill us. Hah
Victory.... hahaha 5 months, lupe is still getiin played. You guys realize we are going to get a an album that is half lupe half atlantic. Some mix of crap that is going to be mediocre at best. Oh well food and liqour:[art 2 by 2020
well thank god finally a release date, i wonder if we will get that Friends of the People to hold us until that March 8th date? ahh probably not can't have to miracles in your life can you?
@Phymestyle -To be honest I'd rather have the album drop on like December 25th, that way theres sometime to promote and all that, he doesnt need that much "promotion" time cause it's not like it's going to be all over the tv. ANYWWAYS I'M STILL EXCITED!!!!
Aww damn, I can see it now. Once the album drops people will be picking it apart and trying to utilize their extensive insider knowledge of Lupe to see if it's REALLY his work or not . . . . just can't satisfy everybody in this world.
WE caused this to happen, folks. WE stood up and Atlantic buckled . . . OR Lupe buckled. We dunno and probably never will, but I highly doubt his music will be any less "Lupe" than before. Get real.
All this need to promote this album is total bullshit dude.Lasers have been in purgatory for more than a year,Lupe has been on tour performing the songs on the album,the petition was talked about on CNN,and the protest has been all over the internet..... it already promoted! The fans get screwed
Didnt you not read comment above? It needs no promotion!! an I agree December is better for a single to play out but March of next yr is definitely too long!!! I see this is what divides our fans an I applaud atlantic because its working... Gave us the date so the wolves could calm down before the initial feeding time.. We were gonna go apeshit on the 15th an I still plan to but they divided us now an they will soon go in to conquer.. It'll only be in due time...
I smell bullshit. For an album to have been done over a year there is no reason why it should be released in March of 2011. Sounds like for one they don't want the fans to protest the release of the album which anyone who are availible SHOULD DO. This is just a little far fetched. I'm not going to front either, what are we really going to get on this album. Is it going to be the actual album that the label did not want to release or is it going to be the album that they felt should be released. Disconcerting to be honest.
Tell me about it, its straight bs from limb to limb on this and if people are satisfied so much to not continue to protest thats a shame I mean yes im happy that march 8th is a date better than never but come on it was suppose to come out march this yr yall... The same ol bs to stop the crazy protest thats all! F*ck atlantic
FINALLY! I wonder how it came about. Fiasco Friday still on right? How about be celebrate. March 8 IT BETTER BE IN STORES AND IF IT'S NOT I'M POPPIN' OFF!
I'm happy in a way but then again in a way I'm not because I don't see this as Victory, March 11th seems like an eternity because we fans have already waited 3 plus years for an album and this whole year for the release of lasers, then the album has been turned in so by the time we hear it it MAY be new to us but in actuality we listening to 1 or 2 year old Lupe material, in that time frame of waiting to put lasers out he could have made a fresher project just out of boredom, I hate to wait anther 1/2 a year but I will still support Lupe regardless the fans deserve better tho
Now, whats causing all this? You have all stopped jerking off in unison outside of Atlantic headquarters, so what you going to do now? Your not going to buying no mink coats...your not going to sipping champagne pool side at the Hilton Atlanta in Downtown Atlanta, GA. Your not going to have all the women in a flurry when they smell your cologne. What you will be doing is waiting on the release of this casette and drooling over your Captain Crunch with a dead look in your eyes. Why protest over something that is really nothing in the grand scheme of things. What will you protest next, having to change your underwear. You got no place at the table in the Naitchs eyes. Whoooo.
We the fans released this album. What other artist has their fans put out albums?? We are lasers! Finally after years of waiting we got another Lupe album on the way. Damn it feels good.
dammit, im grateful that we got a release date but damn! lasers should have been out a lifetime ago. hopefully, somehow, lupe can push up the date or somethin. im not sure how something like that gets done but i cant wait a 5 month period for a 2 year old album to come out. what is all that time possibly needed for? but hey, LASERS is still in fact on the way. WE ARE NOT LOSERS...
@Rich flair Finally a person that has no belief in what this is comes in the light.NO we wont sip champagne and yeah few of us will go back to our normal lives.Even though, some will be inspired by this to make a difference and will make a difference in this world.So sorry we aren't like you who follows what everyone else likes and sit on your ass and follow the rules.
Wow thats good that they made up and his album is coming out next year. I dont mind waitn a lil bit longer, as longs as its coming out for sure..I luv Lupe Fiasco, he is the most positive rapper that I have ever heard rap and I also dont think that he and his true fans should have had to wait so long for a response from Atlantic but..I guess u can say “better late than NEVER”
I'm happy we got what we want to a extent. Why release a album next year, when he haven't drop a album in 3 years? Well I guess it's a new beginning for the LASERS album. Lupe, I know you gonna drop some fire records for us. I can't wait. I'mma be so damn impatient. LMAO! YEAHHHHHHHHHH!
still have fiasco friday but not to protest i mean we got a release date already dont ruin anything with the protest just go there to show atlantic records that we made our voices heard dont go crazy!!!!
DEVON, The Nature Boy is a trendsetter, not a follower. DEVON, The Nature Boy only follows the rules set by The Nature Boy himself. Their is not one human being on this earth with the style and grace and a number 10 on each of his arm like Ric Flair so I can understand jealousy. And I understand that a champagne glass in your hand Devon would look out of place seeing your penis is in your hand 23 hours out of 24, give yourself a rest and hit Studio 57 and go home with a 4 because at least that is a start big man. And who is Lupe Fiasco? He is welcome at Jim Crockett Promotions, I'll open the door only to knock him back through. Find me in Atlanta G.A because I am what is cooking!!!
I'm still protesting "Doing what's right". Atlantic is/was wrong for trying to make Lupe into someone he's not, and trying to alter his thoughts and beliefs.
They called him whack.....And to say that about THEE ONLY MC WHO IS PROMOTING POSITIVE CHANGE IS RIDICULOUS.
I'll see you all on October 15th. Atlantic doesn't win. WE THE FANS WINS. Because we are not losers, We are LASERSSSSSSSS.
Maybe Atlantic don't think Lupe isn't all that great, hence having to write hooks for him etc..I don't know but sounds like someone turned in a weak product and got his ego bruised. All the same release Lasers..at least its a good title.
March 2011, feels like we've waited long enough already.
ReplyDeleteAnd when it's this far away there's always the risk of having it put back further
#LASERS
ReplyDeleteWE WILL NOT LOSE BECAUSE....
:DDDDDD
this is exactly 5 months from today. If it's already done, why not just make it like 1 month or even less?
ReplyDeleteSo what's going down for Fiasco Friday if there's no need to protest to release the album?
ReplyDeletewell they need time to promote and for the album and the first single needs time to catch on and grow so while i dont like it the date is understandable
ReplyDeleteSigh . . . finally a date, but so far off. I understand the need for the delay; They have to make the CDs, labels, promotions, get it out there, all that crap. Just been waaaiiittiiing . . . but I guess another FIVE MONTHS won't kill us. Hah
ReplyDeletepraise jesus
ReplyDeletelol havent seen oloni on here in FOREVERRRR!!!!
ReplyDeleteYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!
ReplyDeleteRelax guys... that 6 month period will be used to add on to the album and to promote... or would you rather it drop now without promo?
ReplyDeleteVictory.... hahaha 5 months, lupe is still getiin played. You guys realize we are going to get a an album that is half lupe half atlantic. Some mix of crap that is going to be mediocre at best. Oh well food and liqour:[art 2 by 2020
ReplyDeletewell thank god finally a release date, i wonder if we will get that Friends of the People to hold us until that March 8th date? ahh probably not can't have to miracles in your life can you?

ReplyDelete@Rhymestyle
ReplyDeleteYou don't need 5-6 months to prepare a promotion strategy for a 2 and a half years old already-finished album.
Ya'll getting trolled. This is to stop Fiasco Friday.
pffff
ReplyDeleteYES!!! "We Will Not Lose, Because We Are Not Losers. WE ARE LASERS!" Victory Is Ours.
ReplyDeleteAww damn, I can see it now. Once the album drops people will be picking it apart and trying to utilize their extensive insider knowledge of Lupe to see if it's REALLY his work or not . . . . just can't satisfy everybody in this world.
ReplyDeleteWE caused this to happen, folks. WE stood up and Atlantic buckled . . . OR Lupe buckled. We dunno and probably never will, but I highly doubt his music will be any less "Lupe" than before. Get real.
Still PROTEST!!!!!! earlier release date, the powers are getting nervous we cant back down now
ReplyDeleteits the art of war here smh they just exposed our weak point....
wave a little date in front of our eyes & all the fight in us goes away
the protest should have been BIGGER THAN JUST LASERS
i see no Victory, that was probably the planned release date from the jump, just wanted to blackball Lupe & watch him sweat it out & cry
NO PROTEST? SORRY LASERS WE JUST LOST!!!!!
Finally. Don't care that it's in March. At least it is on the table. I can wait for the album, it will be worth it im sure.
ReplyDeleteby then i definately wont even wana hear that shit anymore....lol
ReplyDeleteJust think about it; 300+ fans in front of a record company demanding an album release date?
ReplyDeletecould only help Lupe's national exposure & the news would have no choice but to cover it; somewhat.
The news would talk about how his music is not all about guns & violence but social change
new fans & a new understanding of Lupe's music
now, let's see if they'll use any of these FIVE MONTHS to actually PROMOTE this album
ReplyDeleteAll this need to promote this album is total bullshit dude.Lasers have been in purgatory for more than a year,Lupe has been on tour performing the songs on the album,the petition was talked about on CNN,and the protest has been all over the internet..... it already promoted!
ReplyDeleteThe fans get screwed
Some people are never happen. smh
ReplyDeleteso is their still a fiasco friday? and can we pleeeeeeeeeaaaaase get a mixtape in the meantime???:D :D
ReplyDeleteI think Fiasco Friday should still go on. Show Atlantic that we're not going to let up until Lasers is in our hands.
ReplyDeleteJesus christ stop complaining. This happens with every album, they need time to promote and for singles.
ReplyDeleteWe got a date, it's finally coming
Didnt you not read comment above? It needs no promotion!! an I agree December is better for a single to play out but March of next yr is definitely too long!!!

ReplyDeletehalf a year from now*
ReplyDeleteFINALLY! I wonder how it came about. Fiasco Friday still on right? How about be celebrate. March 8 IT BETTER BE IN STORES AND IF IT'S NOT I'M POPPIN' OFF!
ReplyDelete*waits*
ReplyDeleteI'm happy in a way but then again in a way I'm not because I don't see this as Victory, March 11th seems like an eternity because we fans have already waited 3 plus years for an album and this whole year for the release of lasers, then the album has been turned in so by the time we hear it it MAY be new to us but in actuality we listening to 1 or 2 year old Lupe material, in that time frame of waiting to put lasers out he could have made a fresher project just out of boredom, I hate to wait anther 1/2 a year but I will still support Lupe regardless the fans deserve better tho
ReplyDeleteAwesome.
ReplyDeleteGuys, guys, guys... the fans have waited almost three years for a new album. Six months seems like a walk in the park.
ReplyDeleteNow, whats causing all this? You have all stopped jerking off in unison outside of Atlantic headquarters, so what you going to do now? Your not going to buying no mink coats...your not going to sipping champagne pool side at the Hilton Atlanta in Downtown Atlanta, GA.

ReplyDeleteWhoooo.

ReplyDeleteSTILL HAVE FIASCO FRIDAY!
THEY'VE HAD A RELEASE DATE TWICE ALREADY! AND NOTHING!
FREE L.A.S.E.R.S. EARLIER!
They NEVER had a release date dumbass not ever once so WTF are u talkin bout twice smh
ReplyDeleteWe the fans released this album. What other artist has their fans put out albums?? We are lasers! Finally after years of waiting we got another Lupe album on the way. Damn it feels good.
ReplyDeletedammit, im grateful that we got a release date but damn! lasers should have been out a lifetime ago. hopefully, somehow, lupe can push up the date or somethin. im not sure how something like that gets done but i cant wait a 5 month period for a 2 year old album to come out. what is all that time possibly needed for? but hey, LASERS is still in fact on the way.
ReplyDeleteWE ARE NOT LOSERS...
Well I think Fiasco Friday should still go on. But not as a protest. Just to show Atlantic that 'we' can rally and make her voices heard.
ReplyDeleteWe don't know what goes in choosing a release date for an album. Heck Lupe could have chosen that date himself.
It would be nice to have a mixtape before then....maybe another album at the end of next year too.
p.s if their still is a fiasco friday please please please don't start a riot folks!!! lets keep it classy and not trashy :D
